, I first learned about Go years and years ago, and while I got a book with instructions about how to play, and even downloaded some software to play against, until recently, I hadn't really played all that much (In general, I find playing board games against a computer to be too sterile, interacting with someone is half the fun of playing a game). Although I have known about online go for years, it is only recently that I have discovered them. So finally, I have really started playing the game.
Living near Washington DC, I know there are some Go clubs near by, but with a toddler at home, and a new baby on the way, getting out for an evening of Go will probably remain a rare luxury for the foreseeable future (That being said, I hope my son in a couple of years might get interested in games like go and chess, since they are far better ways of spending time than watching TV). That being said, I probably will see if I can take a small portion of my tax refund and invest in a modest goban and stones (so don't be surprised if I start asking questions about equipment
).Hope to play some of you (and learn from you) on KGS in the near future
